Teen Craft for a Cause

For teens in grades 6-12, this provides an opportunity to help us help local and national nonprofits. Teens will make a variety of crafts, such as paracord bracelets, pillowcases, friendship bracelets, cards, etc., and the library will get the items to where they need to go. Teens can stay for the entire two hours and earn their time in community service hours that may be needed for school, church, court, etc.
